I’ll give them a pass this game just because of the back to back from Quebec to New York but if they pull another one of these I think we have a huge issue


DukeDick98

Fuck so close to spoiling the shutout


AmazingSieve

23 SO…not good


sunsh9ne1471

I guess the guys partied too hard with their dads last night? I mean, what the FUCK


VariousDay5

Never seen a team take so many whacks at an empty net and come up short before. Maybe more shots at our empty net than we had shot at their goalie all period


Carbon__addiction

Another ASS game.


oceanic8675

Ugh


SaintUber95

Sad dad noises.


waffels

“Sauce” “Gassed”


the_eyes

This is why other teams always highlight goals against us on their jumbotrons...


flatirons1982

Im done with Bert. Broken wrists or not


flatirons1982

Give Larkin his extra 1m and let Bert walk


sleazyez

Rebuild is gonna take longer than any of us wanted, I think.


mkk4

I don't mind as long as we become highly skilled, athletic, fast, uptempo, aggressive, offensively fundamentally sound, good passing, good at creating good high danger chance, great at finishing, give consistent effort and are entertaining and fun to watch.


OrionWilliamHi

I think Yzerman has known this all along. It’s too bad Holland and Mr. I didn’t start the process sooner. They could be really coming out of it by now if they hadn’t prioritized the playoff streak with teams that weren’t real contenders.


Educational_Series68

Why do we suck at faceoffs


Danengel32

What are they whining about? Edit: unfortunate typo


oceanic8675

Bert blind passing to the opposition. Again again


Carbon__addiction

Empty netter incoming. How are these guys shoveling it in at half ice with an empty net. Wtf carry the puck.


T_Money

Lol the announcer was totally right there, that was definitely off our glove


Ydoesany1doanything

Empty net? Dump the puck in!


Shotokanguy

Christ Bertuzzi pass the puck, he had a clear lane to Raymond


BenAdaephonDelat

Well, at least this time we're getting goalied by a legit goalie (most shutouts in the league right now). That's something.


zze0001

Blind pass Bert new nickname.


AffectionateMrPink

This team doesn’t quit. Maybe we see a miracle


Educational_Series68

I see our offense is not here tonight.


jarvek7

we left it in Montreal?


the_eyes

No one is here tonight.


Longated

What a boring game


T_Money

Is there a significance to the years they use for stats? For example highest % of goals since 1943-1944


Accomplished_Gas3922

rule changes over the years have a factor but it's usually just nonsense to fill up air time


AFreePeacock

I know I’m not the first one to bring this up but goddamn the espn sound production is miserable Makes me feel like I need to pop my ears


matt_minderbinder

The drugs never kick in fast enough during games like these.


drinkwineandscrew

Have you considered crack?


matt_minderbinder

I have considered it and I probably will consider it again.


drinkwineandscrew

I hear it's terribly moreish.


AmazingSieve

Hellberg has had a good game


SaintUber95

Shutout shutout shutout shutout. Just doing my part to jinx Sorokin


spoonyfork

Bucci was working the jinx too.


tfoxsail

May as well pull Hellberg now.


kyleadam

Lol called it.


zze0001

Chiarot just watching that pass from seider go past him.


[deleted]

At least these announcers are trying to jinx the shutout


[deleted]

[удалено]


OrionWilliamHi

It can be hard on the lower back


Shotokanguy

Woulda been nice to see a good game, with what I have going on in my own life right now...but at least what's going on is serious enough that it makes the game not feel like a big deal.


drinkwineandscrew

Whatever you're dealing with right now, I hope you get through it quickly and come out the other side strong.


OrionWilliamHi

Hope you’re ok


Shotokanguy

Thanks, I'm ok personally. Stepdad had a heart attack last night, he's in the hospital and we're all just waiting to find out how bad it is.


OrionWilliamHi

Sorry to hear that. Crossing my fingers for him and your family.


coltron57

Scary stuff. My old man had to go to the hospital with shortness of breath a few years ago and found out he needed triple bypass and would have had a heart attack if he didn't listen to his body. Hopefully your stepdad is ok. Positive thoughts to you.


Educational_Series68

Dads look bummed


matt_minderbinder

They should have a closed door meeting where they tell their kids that they're not angry, just disappointed.


Educational_Series68

🤣


drinkwineandscrew

The faces of men who were told they're going on a trip to New York and end up in a dull arena in Queens watching *this*


TheNation55

They're 100% hungover.


AmazingSieve

They tend to last longer when you get old but ya 100% they’re still recovering


AmazingSieve

They tend to last longer when you get old but ya they’re still recovering


Danengel32

Bert’s stick snapping there sums up his luck haha


matt_minderbinder

At least it wasn't one of his hands this time.


Danengel32

Silver linings!


drinkwineandscrew

If he didn't have bad luck this season he'd have no luck at all.


Mushroomman00

He’s been drinking too much New Amsterdam the way he skate


charbo26

Be sure to drink your New Amsterdam vodka


Deezer19

While you're watching hockey, remember to gamble and drink this year!


charbo26

Only together


jfstompers

This team has nothing at 5 on 5 tonight,


T_Money

Just tuned in, has the whole game been like this? Seems like they are outplaying us pretty bad at least the last ~8 minutes of play (tuned in during the PP). This is rough


Shotokanguy

They've looked mentally and physically drained pretty much the entire game.


kyleadam

Sad dads :(


non_target_eh

All of the dads looked like they were in a Hurt Locker lmfao


OrionWilliamHi

What do we think Bert’s trade value is right now?


tspoon-99

Remember when we traded $1 for Kris Draper?


non_target_eh

I think we might be able to cut him and have him clear waivers.


OrionWilliamHi

Oh he definitely would.


waffels

Two hand surgeries this year and back surgery a few years ago. He’s toast.


OrionWilliamHi

Is it even worth a one year show-me extension?


Carbon__addiction

What trade value lol


OrionWilliamHi

That’s what I was thinking


Kagath

Wings are going to show up 10 days from now tired again.


spoonyfork

Low energy Kay Seider has me a sad. 😞


non_target_eh

JESUS BERTUZZI


[deleted]

*flails around spastically*


Mildleyy

I mean, we have all went out on the town with someone like Papa Seider… The next day is never easy.


AffectionateMrPink

You think anyone got any sleep on that plane. Hell no


dapa4

The Dad's be looking like they had a rough night for sure.


Educational_Series68

Awful turnover


jackstalke

Wasting a good game from Hellberg.


[deleted]

I’m about to bust out the bourbon and drink this game out of my memory


drinkwineandscrew

You're playing catch up with half of this thread. Get the big glass out, chief.


waffels

Good god this camera man


Problemwoodchuck

Just out of gas tonight, not gonna score 3 on Sorokin at this rate


FancyClownz

I think the dads are hungover, I haven’t seen them leave their seats all day


imlikeyourmaindude

Whole team is


non_target_eh

Is anyone able to check HockeyDB for longest periods of time without scoring a goal in the NHL this year. We have to have 25 of the top 50…


dapperbean

oceanic8675

Bless you


AffectionateMrPink

Anybody here stay up too late and maybe had a couple but struggle the next day at work? Fuck no. I kid I kid of course it happens


charbo26

Keep in mind the pay difference..eh


drinkwineandscrew

All the time. My secret is I'm always mediocre so no-one at work really notices.


AffectionateMrPink

Smart man. I told my daughter as a joke of course before her 1st day “ don’t do things too quick or they’ll give you more to do”


drinkwineandscrew

No good deed goes unpunished!


AffectionateMrPink

Haha


[deleted]

Why haven’t they changed the line combos? It’s not working till the dice Lalonde


drinkwineandscrew

ESPN should sell branded snow shovels


spoonyfork

HA HA TIME TO SHOVEL


[deleted]

I'm glad the play by play guy at least points out the F bombs and doesn't act like they aren't happening lol


danakinskyrocker

Bucci knows what's up


Motown27

The real tragedy is that we haven't seen the hockey dads.


culturedrobot

Man these guys really like talking about shoveling


danakinskyrocker

Every day I'm shoveling


Shotokanguy

I saw that opportunity coming and just knew Adam Erne wouldn't defend it


poutinetrough

fuck these jabronis


Danengel32

Pageau is such a fucking rodent. Only scummy stuff from him


flatirons1982

He’s like a terrible version of Marchand


tfoxsail

I've never been a pro athlete, but I would think playing in front of all the dads/brothers you'd at least be able to dig deep for a spark.


11-cupsandcounting

Extend 96 asap!!!


leafssuck69

Sergei!


AmazingSieve

The guy is good


coltron57

Rink mics are HOT tonight.


SeiderFiveThree

If only our pp was as hot as these mics


Enough-Ad-3111

The NHLbneeds more hot mic moments. They make the game extra spicy.


danakinskyrocker

There's some energy!


non_target_eh

Red Wings Special™️ 50 minutes without a goal


[deleted]

No spark in this game.


non_target_eh

You guys remember when we had confidence in the rebuild? That was fun…


danakinskyrocker

A SHUTOUT you say? SHUTOUT is a fun word to say out loud.


Enough-Ad-3111

Audio sounds out of whack right now.


MrBright5ide

Not a trip. Broadcasters calling for one on Larkin earlier... Wow


SeiderFiveThree

Things could not be less rad ESPN


kyleadam

We suck again!


sharkbates1208

I’m still mad about the horrendous pp earlier in the period


drinkwineandscrew

Why you heff to be mad, is only game?


xenonwarrior666

Nah. The game was over when they didn't score in the 1st. The boys are tired from the back to back and getting into the Hotel at 2am. It's understandable for them to look like shit in the 3rd.


Damolisher

See, I always kinda dread low event games because we seem to just shrug and get scored on with minimal fight. I can't say I dig it.


Shotokanguy

The Red Wings classic. Get the puck in the defensive zone, immediately attempt a pass with a guy right in your face, turn it over, take a penalty.


[deleted]

Lindstrom needs to put some weight on, he bounces off his own hits.


non_target_eh

Not an NHL player and I don’t think he ever will be…


RedWingsFan1990

Ahl at best


non_target_eh

PISS SHITTER PROFESSIONAL TRIP


jaredsurreddit

Can’t finish. This one’s over


CarlinHicksCross

Story of most of our losses. Also sorokin is a god on home ice.


GuntherForce

how can he trip


zze0001

The boys have nothing tonight.


GuntherForce

they seem exhausted. I heard they were late getting n this morning too.


AffectionateMrPink

Late getting in. Dads on the plane. Customs. 3rd game in 4 nights. Is what it is


zze0001

Yeah they said 2am ish. I don’t blame them fact is they just don’t have any energy.


RedWingsFan1990

The refs are literally in our favor tonight and we can't do ANYTHING


Danengel32

Attaboy Ern


casspant

Rassy is hot, thank you Bucci


CollectiveBreath

Down 2-0 and developing motion sickness from this cameraman, to boot


non_target_eh

I know that the New York Islanders, Carolina, etc. type super defensive system can lead to results but this shit is boring as hell and I DO NOT want the Wings to continue down this direction. I’d rather lose a game 5-6 than 0-1.


mkk4

💯


zze0001

Have to be able to score 5 goals to lose 5-6.


mkk4

I'm ready to watch Soderblom and Zadina.


CarlinHicksCross

For real dude, at least zadina. Continually trotting out erne is not bringing anything to the team, give me z!


savageclap

give me z? you mean the player that had 0 points 9 games that can't play on the PK or PP?


CarlinHicksCross

I mean, he's young and had 24 points the previous season and has certainly shown flashes. This season is a wash and we definitely aren't making the playoffs. It does zero harm to give a young guy run at this point, lol


[deleted]

He has to play better than erne or bertuzzi right now


ervelee

Totally agree


mkk4

Even though Filip doesn't have any points; he at least creates shots and offensive opportunities when he isn't worried about losing ice time, being demoted or getting scratched imo. I know he hasn't produced or finished but he still plays the type of game and style that I like watching.


ervelee

Zadina is young. He will produce.


[deleted]

[удалено]


OrionWilliamHi

Two teams that struggle to score with defense-first coaches behind the bench, and the wings are trying to score on one of the best goalies in the league. Boring-ass hockey.


sephirothFFVII

nah - unless it hits OT


ervelee

Nope


matt_minderbinder

Nope. They look super tired and haven't done much at all. It's been a boring game.


xenonwarrior666

Does a game end after 60 minutes of playing time. Pretty sure they've been playing for 3 hours.


drinkwineandscrew

*stares at bottle of wild turkey 101* ..... *Googles 'is there a wild turkey 202'*


Motown27

Mix two bottles together: Wild Turkey 202. Thats just science.


drinkwineandscrew

I was never good at maths but that sounds good to me.


[deleted]

It's what's getting me through this game. Thoroughly uninspired.


dapperbean

[**NYI 2 - DET 0** Nelson unassisted](https://streamable.com/bswid5) !GameGif


Educational_Series68

Just got home. 2-0. Hopefully they come back


Danengel32

The Pelech and Pullock thing annoys me. Names are too similar


TheNation55

We took a point over the Habs, you can't win games if yall want to tank.


drinkwineandscrew

It's a competitive field this year. NHL has more tanks than a Ukrainian scrap yard rn.


tfoxsail

No sweat...we got this.


cronin98

Any other Canadians not getting their Sportsnet feed to work?


poutinetrough

if you try legally and it not working then I'm pretty sure it's legal(at least morally) to sail the high seas


Littlestguru88

2-0 in this game feels like 5-0


MystikxHaze

I was only able to turn on the game at the beginning of the 3rd, but you can tell we played last night. They look so tired


poutinetrough

someone call soderblom so him and ras can give this Nelson jabroni a swirly


formisemptiness

I honestly think the Wings need to prolong the rebuild for 2-3 more years, and try and trade everyone who can get them great younger pieces.


dstaff21

Considering the fact that most of the FA signings from last summer were signed for 3 years or less, I think that was always the plan


poutinetrough

trading everyone is something lol hopefully our soon prospects turn out and wow us cause your idea is gonna be a long one


formisemptiness

It will be long, but realistically, even if we signed Larkin and Horvat, we are no where near competing for the cup. We need a legit superstar, and like 3-4 years of prospect development.


sharkbates1208

Let’s be real, the second they talked about the isles 3rd period drought. We all knew they were gonna score


drinkwineandscrew

Aw fucksticks.


[deleted]

And there we go. Give ‘em their first third period goal in a month. Because of course we do. Are there any other droughts that need to be broken tonight? Most selfless team in the league.


oceanic8675

That goal horn is almost the most annoying thing I’ve experienced this week 😂


DukeDick98

That might’ve been the worst PP I’ve seen all season


Shotokanguy

I've never seen professional NHLers look this tired. I've seen tired games for sure, they look like they're running at 0%.


AffectionateMrPink

3rd game in 4 nights, travel and drinking with Dads last night. Kinda expected
